I Need Help. I Had A 811 With My Old Voom Ota Antenna Using A Winegard Amp. Now My 942 Levels Are Lower And Pic Breaking Up. Thought Maybe The 942 And The Voom "bat Wing" Antenna Might Work With A Special Switch. Know Of Any?
 
The Bat Wing antenna is a Winegard Sensar usually a GS2000 with a built in amplifier. The Motorolla DS-550 for VOOM powered the amplifier. The 811 may have powered the Sensar, your comment about a Winegard Amp makes me wonder if you had a separate power supply connected when you used the 811. If you did you would also need that power supply with the 942 to power the amplifier built into the GS2000.

I think some of the older installs were Channel Master Stealth Antennas that may have had the special Stealth pre-amp inside of them...
